Wildlife rescue reporting when every second counts
From one quick report to help on the way
Kangalert connects people who spot injured wildlife with local rescuers who can respond. View incidents on a live map, drop a pin in seconds and share the details that matter—so the right people can see what has happened and act sooner.
Simple reporting, clearer rescue response
Report what you see
Open the live incident map, place a pin and submit a report without creating an account. Add the animal type, condition, size, road location and whether a joey may be involved.
Give rescuers a clearer picture
Attach an optional photo to help rescuers assess the situation before arrival. Your report can remain anonymous, while still giving local teams the information they need to respond.

Helpful answers, when seconds matter
Can I make a report without creating an account?
Yes. You can drop a pin and submit an incident anonymously. Add your details only if you choose to.
Should I include a photo with my report?
If it is safe to do so, a photo can help rescuers assess the animal and prepare before arriving. Never put yourself at risk for an image.
Can everyone see reported incidents?
The live map lets the community view incidents, while verified rescuers access the tools needed to manage and update reports.
How do rescuers find incidents in their area?
Verified rescue teams set their service area by suburb or postcode, then filter, search and claim relevant reports from their dashboard.
How can a report be kept up to date?
Rescuers can update a claimed report as it progresses, including in progress, joey recovered, animal deceased or resolved.
